Senate President Bukola Saraki has finally responded and debunked reports that he is under pressure to step down for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
It was been reported in some media reports that Saraki is under pressure to withdraw from the race and support Atiku’s ambition ahead of PDP’s National Convention. Yusuph Olaniyonu, the media aide to Senate President Bukola Saraki has rubbished the story, noting that: “Please, please, please.. what kind of story is that? How can a leading candidate step down for somebody else? I have never heard of that before. You can go to Port Harcourt and see for yourself, that Saraki is a top contender for the ticket,” Olaniyonu said.
PDP’s Presidential Aspirants ahead of its convention include Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal; Sule Lamido, former Governor of Jigawa State and former Foreign Affairs Minister; David Mark, a former Senate President and Ibrahim Dankwambo, the outgoing Governor of Gombe State.
